This app is a great tool for learning English and for learning the International Phonetic Alphabet. I came here after enjoying the Sounds of Speech website for years. I'd love to see some color added to the app. It seems silly, but the website had great aesthetics, and this one looks like they skimped on design. Adding a little color would help visually distinguish the categories from subcategories of phonemes.

Terrible. This app doesn't compare to the website I used to use some years ago. It used to be excellent, and it explained many aspects such as voice, manner and place of articulation. It explained all the consonants and vowels. I don't like its new layout. It's not useful. Now it is just a few examples. Can you explain me what happened with the original one? Edited

It was very good in the website where you could get a comprehensive view of all the phonetic aspects with one glance, here the sectioning of the content does not allow that, you have to go from one part to the other to search examples, to make the connections. Please, refine this and make the one comprehensive look, with local, manner and examples all together.

I remember visiting the webpage when it was a kind of beta test for free and it included the German sounds of speech, which are not present in the app. Apart from that, it would be awesome if they could include French in the available languages, as it would make it easier to understand the pronunciation of the letter "r" in it.

Unfortunately I wish I'd read the reviews. I bought this app believing I was supporting uiowa's Sounds of Speech that was available online. That website is definitely with the investment. Unfortunately this app is not, unless you are only interested in English. I feel like I was fooled into paying for something that was a misrepresented what it was.
